CES 2015

CES 2015

The International Consumer Electronics Show (International CES) is a global stage where manufacturers, developers and suppliers of consumer technology hardware, content, technology delivery systems and more showcase next generation innovation. The conference program held in Las vegas, NV in the U. S. A. every year in January features over 200 sessions and 3,000 exhibitors with over 150,000 in attendance from 140 countries. The show attracts the world’s business leaders and pioneering thinkers to a forum where the industry’s most relevant issues are addressed. It’s also the platform for startups to display their products and ideas.

Microsoft has had a keynote session for the last 20 years with the Consumer Electronics Association, but have withdrawn since the last in 2012. Microsoft still participates in CES since they believe it is a great place to connect with partners and customers across the PC, phone and entertainment industries. Microsoft hardware partners like Dell, HP, Toshiba, Lenovo etc., all showcase hardware’s at the conference.

At #CES2015 there have been a lot of device announcements of all sizes and shapes from tablets, Laptops, all-in-one’s etc. I’ll try and detail out some devices with their specifications.
